LISW 2017

Trinity House played a key role
in this year’s London International Shipping Week—the British maritime industry’s
flagship event—by hosting its own demonstration event on Wednesday 13 September,
attended by about 150 guests from various parts of the maritime sector.

Passing under Tower Bridge and arriving
on berth next to HMS Belfast in the
Pool of London on Monday 11 Sept at 0615, the crew of THV Galatea and other staff proceeded to set up a number of displays on
the aft deck and the bridge that would demonstrate the full range of the
service it provides to the mariner, covering subjects such as navigation,
engineering and operations, charitable works, research and development,
commercial services and marine operations.
